Information Sharing

Avon and Somerset Police shares personal data with their partners for different legal purposes.

Tier 1 information sharing

When an organisation wants to be part of our sharing protocol, they sign up to an Information Sharing Agreement (ISA) called Tier 1. It is signed off by, or on behalf of, a chief officer or equivalent for each organisation.

ISA Tier 1 is implemented to make sure regular personal data sharing is in accordance with privacy legislation. The latest version of the protocol is 3.1.

If your organisation is intending to share information with Avon and Somerset Police, check if you are signed up to our ISA – Tier 1.
